“And I have to thank you too!”
“For what?” Shen Jingchuan released Wenyan, looking at her with focused attention.

Wenyan raised her eyebrows at him while pulling out a red string from her neckline.
“Well, because of the jade Buddha you gave me, it really kept me safe.”
“So you’ve been wearing it all along.” Shen Jingchuan’s eyes sparkled brighter than before.
There’s nothing more delightful than knowing the gift you gave is cherished and appreciated by the other person.
This girl knows how it’s done! He’ll send more next time!
“Yeah, I’ve been wearing it ever since I received it. That day on the snowy mountain, Wanwan and I went out to set traps. We needed to insert a sharpened stick into the ground beneath the snow.”
“But I didn’t do well on my first try, so when I inserted the stick, it broke. Then I switched ends and continued to sharpen, but still without success.”
“Failed attempts meant pulling it out, right? Both ends of the stick were sharp, and when I pulled it out, the momentum made one end jab at my chest.”
“It even poked a hole through my clothes. If it weren’t for the jade Buddha I was wearing, which cushioned the blow, I feel I might have sustained some internal injuries.”
“Later, I found a bruise where I’d been poked, but without the jade as a buffer, the consequences would have been more serious. So I thank you.”
“Really?”
“Of course, it’s true. I was already planning to thank you, but not now. I intended to return the favor after I got back to the country, but you suddenly started thanking me.”
Shen Jingchuan frowned, “Nobody’s questioning that, I’m asking about your injury.”
“Then it’s even more true! How about a live reenactment for you!”
“Did you go to the hospital for a check-up afterwards?”
“No need for that, the bruise has long since vanished without a trace.”
“Are you sure? No lingering internal injuries? Does your chest hurt when you cough, or do you have any difficulty breathing?”
“I don’t cough, and I have no trouble breathing.”
“Let me see the Buddha then.”
“No need for that, what do you want to see? I’ve already checked, the jade is fine.”
“Hand it over!”
Left with no choice, Wenyan unhitched the jade Buddha and handed it over.
Shen Jingchuan examined it several times, turning it over in his hands, and then returned it to Wenyan after reassurance that indeed there was no damage.
“I’ll get you a new one later.”
“No need, this one isn’t broken. I usually don’t refuse new things, but I think it’s better to keep wearing the jade Buddha that’s still intact.”
Shen Jingchuan gave her a glance, “You should have picked me when you had the Exchange Card. If I were there, I definitely wouldn’t have let you go out to set traps.”
“Speaking of that, I’ve been meaning to ask you, why didn’t you choose me back then? Didn’t we already agree at the airport?”
Wenyan giggled, “Sister Qin Yan chose you, and I thought it’d be nice if you could help her out.”
“Plus, choosing Wanwan turned out to be great. She’s really amazing, and we even became friends. Overall, I’ve been quite happy this month.”
“Well, as long as you’re happy, that’s good. You should continue to be happy in the future. Bro will always be there to protect you.”
“…You’re getting so sentimental all of a sudden, it’s unlike you. You’re not about to leave or something, are you? You’re going abroad again!”
“!!! How could I? I’m not stupid, and I’ve just made a fortune!”
“Oh~ so it’s all about the money, and then you suddenly get emotional. Money really is a great thing, right? Don’t worry, I’ll work hard to achieve financial freedom soon. When you ask to borrow ten million from me later, I won’t be empty-handed.”
“No need!” Shen Jingchuan was exuberant, “You’re my major shareholder, just wait and see. You’ll be enjoying the high life with me.”
“My few million qualifies me as a major shareholder?”
“If I say you are, then you are.”
“Aww, you’re so domineering, but I love it. Please always be this domineering with me. Here, rock sugar fruit, big bro, please enjoy!”
Wenyan pretended to be ingratiating, her big eyes shining and brimming with spirit.
Shen Jingchuan was utterly mesmerized. Were all little sisters this adorable? So beautiful and cute!
He couldn’t help but rub her head, wishing he could give her the whole world.
But soon he thought about taking back half the world.
Because he realized that Wenyan’s world didn’t revolve solely around him as a brother. T-T.
She soon picked up her phone to contact Shen Jingxiu, not only expressing her love for the rock sugar fruit enthusiastically but also showing extra concern for his injured leg.
